In such a pivotal time in their lives, students need to feel empowered, inspired and enthused- yet not all of us embrace this. projectHUNI wants each and every student to eradicate the nasty feelings of learned helplessness, stress and anxiety that guard us from celebrating our passions, strengths and abilities.

We want to tell students everything we wish we knew when we were transitioning into university, that would have not only made navigating uni so much easier, but also lessened that anxious feeling of stepping out of your comfort-zone into a new independent environment. We simply want to match their expectations with the reality.

projectHUNI runs student-led workshops to high schools because there is nothing more comforting than hearing from a student who's footsteps you're about to walk in. The conversational and interactive nature of these talks cover everything from the daily logistics to managing that stressful period when you're trying to pick a course.We are currently working with over 40 schools across Sydney and rural NSW.

While there are a lot of things I wish I knew heading into uni, there are also some things I’m glad I had no idea about. To know everything simply ruins the surprise, kills the fun some might say. But by the same token, to know absolutely nothing spells disaster.

We did an interesting exercise the other day that turned into an inadvertent social experiment. We went around to random students on campus asking them why they loved their course. The answers we received were somewhat surprising.

Motivation is an interesting thing. On the surface, its more or less the same for each individual: the desire to act. Dive into its core however and you’re hit with one of the most multi-faceted phenomena known to man.

Instead of tapping into the things we love and enjoy, we retreat to job prospects and careers in an attempt to answer the age-old question that every adult seems to ask you “What are you going to be when you grow up?”
